Asik is pretty much a stud but ive been saying that for a long time

Garcia with the dagger. Going back to Houston. Hell ya lol. Crazy considering they had the lead in game 1 and 2 right?

 

[Mexi]

LOLKC

 

[Mexi]

this shit should for sure be over though. FUCK
Rockets choked games 2 and 3 away nasty
 
and game 2 was choked away by OKC first too. SMH
 
Whatever. time for history

 

[RipCity32]

Like I said earlier, if the Rockets won tonight I think they will win the series. I'm sticking by that. Someone has to do it eventually, why not now?

I think I was the first one to point out that Brooks was actually a horrible coach.

 

[Mexi]

i think you were
 
this team outside Durant and Westbrook really isnt good
especially when you take out one of the two
 
at time you look at that team and it's like, charlotte can put put up something better than that with the end of their bench

totally worth it for all four teams imo (POR gets picks too)

People can point at James going 7/9 all they want, but there's no way Parsons only scores 10 in game 6. Everybody else for Houston produced a reasonable point total. Even Asik at 21. He's been capable of impressive double doubles all year.
 
I never thought Omer Asik would be this good. I thought he'd be a defensive juggernaut who couldn't score a bucket to save his life. Now, low and behold, he knows how to finish and end up in double digits most games.
 
There is one clear cut way for Houston to lose game 6: Play Jeremy Lin. He's trash. Cut him after this season and let him ride the bench the rest of the way.

 

[bosoxlover12]

Asik was intentionally fouled 7 times in the 4th, and went 13-18 from the line total. So he scored 8 points really. If you have 18 foul shots and you can't get into double digits in the game, you have no purpose being on an NBA roster

 

[Mexi]

it is funny how the rockets win 2 games with lin sitting
but delfino got hurt, fuck
 
francisco garcia is stepping up. what a great series for him. he's been buried in Sacramento. It's like his rookie year despite being drafted in 2005

I'll still stand by the fact that Cleveland moving Thompson for Aldridge would be stupid.

i wouldnt think tt would be better tjan aldridge but ir could be with coaches help. it doesnt help their future.

Exactly.  That is one of the younger teams in the NBA, so how does trading one of your best young players for a guy who will be 28 in two months help you build towards the future?

"My boy fucked your wife" looooooooool.

I think cutting Perk would hurt the Thunder much more than most realize. What he can single-handedly do for a defense is amazing with his ability to damn near nullify just about any center in the league.

TT might be the most unique big man in the NBA in terms of skill set. If he can develop a decent mid range jumper, he'll be a fringe all-star candidate. Going to take time but he's a dedicated worker, and already added a plethora of moves over last off-season. Really undervalued around the media.

 

[BwareDWare94]

Anybody think Houston can take it 7? I'm having a hard time believing it.
